I think so, in fact in any Windows app the "Open/Save file" dialog allows you 
to acces a SMB shared resource.

Anyway, the only important here is that ALL the Windows apps can acces to a 
SMB share resource transparentely. KDE is more powerful because any KDE app 
can acces to any kind of resource (smb, sftp, ftp, nfs...) with the 
kioslaves, but only KDE apps can do it.

Because of it, the KIO Fuse will be the solution for this real and annoying 
problem. My question is if KIO Fuse will be used in KDE 4.
